Chapter 283: Punishment
The pouring rain turned the world into a water world. The rain www.biquge.info I don't know how many days and nights it has been, but the clouds are still heavy, the earth is dark and dreary, and the faint thunder can only illuminate it with the occasional lightning stroke.
Hanwha was drenched in the rain, hanging his head, and silently knelt on the stone slab. The hall in front of him was tall and dark, and the stone slabs under his feet were endlessly cold, but none of this could compare to the coldness and resentment in Hanwha's heart at this time.
Hanwha had been kneeling outside the hall for three days and three nights, and at the beginning, he shouted from time to time:
"Master, the apprentice knows ...... wrong"
"Master, give the apprentice another chance!"
......
But after three days and three nights, even if Hanwha is a Fa cultivator who is not weak, he can't resist it.
The cold in the body can be driven to dispel the Yuan Force, and the blood trapped in the body can be activated by the Yuan Force, but there is no solution to the numbness and pain in the legs, especially in the knees. The pain had made it impossible for Hanwha to say anything, so he could only hang his head and try to keep his mind blank.
"Purple Dust!"
Hanwha's mind was blank at this time, but he repeatedly gritted his teeth at the name.
How did it happen a few months ago -- no, before Zichen appeared, Hanwha would never have imagined that he would be where he is today.
As a famous young genius cultivator in the Great Wilderness, as the pride of the Heavenly Sect of the Iron Sword Sect, and the undisputed first generation of the younger generation of the sect, he was arrogant and arrogant, and he never put any of his peers in his eyes. All along, Tiejianmen and the people around him have been centered on him, and the endless attention and praise have accumulated layer after layer of aura on him.
Without the advent of Zichen, Hanwha would only have thought about how to "get out" of the wilderness. His gaze has long crossed the "West Exit" of the Great Wilderness, and has fallen on the prosperous land of the Dharma Dao that is rich in resources beyond the Great Wilderness, and he wants to become a member of that Dharma cultivation paradise and continue to write the legend of his Dharma genius.
However, Zichen appeared, and the situation collapsed little by little, and Hanwha's aura of genius was cracked layer by layer at an incredible speed. And he may be selfish, or resentful, or confused......
In any case, in short, the genius of the Iron Sword Gate in the past has now been reduced to the level of a sinner in the Iron Sword Gate, kneeling helplessly in the rain, waiting for the verdict of his fate in the main hall.
But no matter what others think of Hanwha, Hanwha never felt that he had done anything wrong, and the only reason why he was willing to bow his head at this time was that Tiejianmen unexpectedly won the battle, and he made a mistake in judgment, and he didn't have the ability to compete with Tiejianmen, so the original plan could not be carried out.
As a result, Hanwha quickly changed his strategy, knowing that if he couldn't make good use of the soft-heartedness and talent of the Second Elder and the other elders of the Iron Sword Sect, his fate would definitely not be good.
So, before anyone stood up to give an order or punishment, Hanwha took the initiative to kneel outside the hall, looking like he was endlessly repentant, pleading bitterly.
And now, three days and three nights, even though his legs and knees are numb and not his own, Hanwha still has no intention of backing down, gritting his teeth and persevering. Because he knew very well that this was his last chance, and once he backed down, all the plans would be wasted, and everything would be over.
In the main hall, the Great Elder of the Iron Sword Sect, Zi Mad and the Second Elder and other high-ranking members of the sect were all present. Their faces were as heavy as water, and many of them turned their heads from time to time to look at the vague figure kneeling outside the main hall, and the anger on their faces could not be concealed.
"What's so embarrassing about this? I, Tiejianmen, have spent countless efforts and resources to achieve his current reputation and status as Hanwha. He's good, but when my Iron Sword Gate was in danger, he was the first to retreat, and he didn't even have the courage to fight for the Iron Sword Gate!"
An elder placed the teacup on the table and said angrily. If it weren't for the Great Elder Purple Maniac summoning everyone to the main hall to discuss the matter of dealing with Hanwha, he would never have come, according to his thoughts, it would be better for Hanwha to kneel and die in front of the main hall!
There were many people who had similar thoughts to this elder, and as soon as the elder's voice fell, some elders immediately agreed:
"That's a good point! What Han Hua did was already an act of betrayal of the sect, and he should not be treated lightly!"
"Yes! For a traitor like him, not executing him is not enough to make the people angry!"
......
Of course, there are also elders who are extremely sorry for Hanwha's Dharma talent, and say:
"Hanwha is at fault, but his talent for the Dharma is really good, and it would be a pity to execute him like this......"
"Elder Tie has a point. If a talented disciple like Han Hua were to be executed casually, it would also be a loss for my Iron Sword Sect. ”
......
It's just that there are not only a few voices that speak for Hanwha like this, but the voice can't be lowered, which is obviously not enough.
The noise in the main hall became more and more intense, but the two Great Elder Zi Mad and Second Elder, who could really decide Hanwha's fate, remained silent and did not say a word.
I don't know when it was, or if the purple madness stood up. Purple Mad is the real first person in the Iron Sword Gate, his reputation and status are unique, everyone saw him stand up, and they immediately consciously stopped talking, and the chaotic discussion quickly subsided.
Purple glanced at everyone in the main hall, paused, and said, "Hanwha was able to repent outside the main hall and knelt for three days and three nights, and it can be seen that he is indeed determined to admit his mistakes and correct them. Let's start and lose his status as a personal disciple and demote him to an ordinary disciple......"
As soon as Purple Mad said this, there was a dead silence in the hall, and everyone opened their mouths in surprise, unable to believe their ears.
After all, what Han Hua did this time was so bad, many people in the Iron Sword Sect felt that even if they killed Han Hua, they might not be relieved, but the Great Elder proposed such an understatement punishment, which was really unexpected!
In the main hall, only the second elder's painful face loosened a little, and while he was surprised, his eyes quietly revealed his gratitude to the purple madness.
Even if Han Hua did such a rebellious thing, the second elder still couldn't let go of his feelings for his beloved disciple, and according to the second elder's thoughts, he was naturally unwilling to execute Han Wha. However, the second elder is Hanwha's master, and if he comes out and says that Hanwha is punished lightly, it will not only be unruly, but also difficult to convince the public.
And such words, spoken by the Great Elder Purple Mad are precisely the most appropriate. The Second Elder knew that the reason why Purple Mad made such a decision was actually for him. No matter what grievances there were in the past, the second elder was grateful for it.
